Re: Favorite Webcomic/Comic Series/Graphic novel

I finally started Homestuck, you guys. Why didn't I start reading this in 2010 when I was first introduced to it? Now I have this whole archive to read.... Oh right, I still had dial-up and hadn't developed a sense of internet humor yet.

I'm only at 7/26/09, so don't ruin it for me or I might just punch you guys.

I'm just a little ways into Act 5, specifically 06/14/10. I just met Karkat.

Thank God for those recaps. I read the first one, and it finally "made sense." I've heard that sometimes it takes a little while to "get" or understand the plot to Homestuck. I got a little confused somewhere before the end of the first year, but I'm good now.

I started reading a Red Tail's Dream the other day and I gotta say it looks AMAZING!The comic author/writer also said in one of her posts that her current comic was just practice for an even larger more detailed one.I don't know how she could possibly do that but hopefully in the near future we'll be able see her new stuff too.

Oh hey, I've read that. The art and plot is so good. The only thing that bothered me in the beginning was Hannu's early attitude and how everyone was so condescending. Character development definitely got better, though!

They're not all awful. Some are actually decently readable. My favorite is the Leo troll. The typing quirk is just adorable! :33

Yeah, apparently, John Solomon was thinking about putting Homestuck on the BadWebComicsWiki(which I despise, by the by).

Solomon is a SA goon, actually, and made his own blog called Your Webcomic Is Bad And You Should Feel Bad. After he got enough of it he closed it down. The BWW subsequently archived it on their site, but Solomon understandably got angry that his actually competent, funny writing became associated with their beef consumme-poor imitation. Cue Internet drama.

Not for long.

Are the trolls growing on ya?

Knowing Andrew Hussie, he'll do what he's done with Act 6 (because, you know, ACT 6 ACT 5 ACT 1, as an example) and delay the end of Act 7 for as long as possible.

Sort of. Getting there. They grow more humane over time.

Hahaha. Haha. Ha. Haha. Those of us who are on Act 6 are laughing at you. Actually, more like with you. 'Cause that's exactly what he's doing with Act 6.

Not to mention you meet trolls other than Karkat. Which is your favorite so far?

But I like Karkat! He's one of the most tolerable trolls!

My favorites are Karkat, Tarvos, Kanaya, and Gamzee.

The only trolls I don't like are Terezi and Vriska.

I still have yet to "meet" the sea trolls.

Re: Favorite Webcomic/Comic Series/Graphic novel

Terezi gets a lot deeper. Originally she was just "the other one" and was hard to read when she typed. Now she's one of my favorites. She develops a lot as a person.

Vriska is an interesting one. I really like her as a character, but a lot of people hate her just because she isn't a good person. Your ability to enjoy Vriska depends on whether or not you can like a character who does a lot of bad stuff.

Housepetscomic (duh!)Dr.McninjaFaux Pas (though I don't read it everyday now, just whenever i feel like it)Lackadaisy (when it does update!)Slightly Damned

I use to read Bittersweetcandybowl and TwoKinds, but after reading a few chapters, i realized they wern't my taste. They had a few things that drew my attention, but they seem to be drawn-out fanservice comics in my opinion, which Housepets is certainly not.

Terezi has grown on me, and Vriska could be good if she wasn't such a jerk. Jeez. I like all the trolls now, except for Vriska's bad qualities.

I just love Vriska because of her complex morality. The bottom line is that she's a bad person, but I like what goes into that. She doesn't delight in doing evil, she's just self-centered. She wants to make a big mark on the world(s). Whether she's fighting for good or doing random acts of evil. She really wants to be the most important character in Homestuck, and she's kind of a sociopath because of it.

My new favorite comic:Well, one of them I discovered this comic at the biginning of the new year and it is AWESOME!I mean, just look at all this AWESOME!

Every comic is based off of real life situations experienced by the two main characters/authors, plus, every comic is like three jokes in one if you read the strip, then the alt text, AND the description at the bottom
